## Long description

MAONO PD400X is a wired dynamic podcast microphone offering both XLR and USB-C connectivity for flexible recording workflows. With −51 dB sensitivity and 24-bit audio resolution, this black microphone is designed for podcasting, streaming, voice-over and home studio use. The PD400X combines a cardioid pickup pattern, real‑time monitoring and an integrated multifunction control knob to deliver clear vocal capture and straightforward operation across Windows, macOS, iOS and Android devices.
Advantages
The cardioid polar pattern provides effective off‑axis noise rejection for focused voice capture. Dual XLR and USB-C interfaces let you connect to professional mixers and audio interfaces or record directly to computers and mobile devices. A 3‑in‑1 multifunction knob gives tactile control over microphone gain, headphone volume and monitor mix, while a one‑tap mute function offers quick, reliable muting. Real‑time monitoring via the 3.5 mm jack and compatibility with the MAONO‑LINK app for tone, equalizer, limiter and compressor adjustments expand control and fine‑tuning options.
Suitable for
Podcasting and interview recordings

How to use
For XLR operation, connect the microphone to an audio interface, mixer or preamp that supplies the required professional-level input. For direct digital recording, connect via USB‑C to a compatible computer or mobile device and select the PD400X as the input device. Use the multifunction knob to set microphone gain, headphone volume and monitor mix; press the knob to switch between adjustment modes. Plug headphones into the 3.5 mm jack for real‑time monitoring. Tap the mute control to instantly mute the microphone when needed. Install and open the MAONO‑LINK application to access tone, EQ, limiter and compressor settings for further sound shaping.
Usage recommendations
Position the microphone about 10–20 cm from the mouth and slightly off‑axis to reduce plosives. Use the cardioid pattern to minimize background noise and place any noise sources (fans, monitors) behind the microphone. When recording via USB‑C, verify sample rate and bit depth in your recording software to take advantage of 24‑bit resolution. Use a shock mount or boom arm with the provided threaded interface and enable low‑latency monitoring in the MAONO‑LINK app for real‑time performance checks.
